Food scene

Randy’s Donuts is the most visually iconic culinary establishment in Inglewood. Its larger than life donut sculpture and donuts have been featured in countless movies, tv shows and music videos. Everyone has different tastes for sweets, so recommending one flavor is difficult. With each donut costing around $1.50 only, you can try several and see which ones you personally like! And don’t forget to snap an Insta-worthy photo here!

A local chain that gets celebrities and politicians alike (including President Obama), Roscoe’s is arguably the world’s most famous place for chicken and waffles, a soul food staple. We recommend the #3 (half chicken with two waffles) for yourself if you’ve got a big appetite, or shared if you want to not have to waddle out of there. Biscuits and sweet tea are also bomb. Just lower your expectations for service and wait time.

We love Karuba, his wife and their story of how Yardy’s Kitchen came to be! Karuba is an award-winning alumnus chef from Whole Foods, who decided to take the entrepreneurial leap to opening his own restaurant hailing from his Jamaican roots with a west coast twist. The result is absolutely delicious food here at reasonable prices (for LA), and worth the wait for his made-to-order dishes, which are great for meat lovers and vegans alike. We love the jerk chicken, jerk bowl and the Beyond Meat Bowl. And if they’re available, try any of their patties (similar to empanadas). You can take them to go! We think Yardy’s is a hidden local gem about to explode, so try it first before everyone else discovers it! Mention “Jonathan and Cindy’s Airbnb” and enjoy 10% off!
